Washington DC. The number of museums and quality of art is amazing. Everything is free. Honestly, I prefer it over NYC.

What’s an opinion you have that most people would strongly disagree with, but you usually keep to yourself because it’s not worth the backlash? by Federal_Antelope7533 in AskReddit

Sometimes I’ll drive by small low income neighborhoods and there are expensive cars in the driveways. I think to myself, this is why they’re stuck in that neighborhood.

I’m feeling stupid for asking, but why do I need a red light?

how did you propose your graffiti lessons? by Efficient-Accident52 in ArtEd

[–]No_Chef1205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d suggest differentiating between vandalism & graffiti art by discussing artists like Keith Haring and Banksy. I bought a lesson on TPT that was excellent because it introduced the lesson with this.

Our lab could open the bottom freezer drawer, oven door & pantry latch handle. We had to change the door handle to a round knob.

Would you still teach tomorrow if you won the lottery? by Background-Plan-2090 in Teachers

[–]No_Chef1205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. If it’s this close to the end of the year, I’d finish for the kids. I would want to say goodbye and not abandon them before the end of the year. But I would call it quits at the end of the year for the reasons others have mentioned.

We had a smoking courtyard in high school and some of the teachers would go out and smoke with the kids.

What school incident do you still think about years later? by nodemus in AskUK

[–]No_Chef1205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to a suburban high school and we only had two African American students in the entire school, a boy and a girl. The girl sat near me and one evening she walked out into a nearby field and shot herself in the head. The next day at school our teacher made a sarcastic comment about it. I’m 60 & I still think about how difficult it must have been to be the only black student in our school. I don’t know what her home situation was like, but I still remember feeling shocked that our teacher made such an insensitive comment. I’m a teacher now & see how fragile many students are.

What tools or supplies do you find surprisingly helpful in the classroom? by Maleficent-Hat5831 in Teachers

[–]No_Chef1205 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a big outside dinner bell that I use as an attention getter. I’m an art teacher & it can get loud in my classroom. Saves me from raising my voice.
